Most all male schools, public and private, went co-ed in the 60s and 70s, and they did so not because it was that hard to persuade smart young men to go to an all male school but because society as a whole was demanding that the advantages of these schools be available to women as well as men. I'm not saying that going co-ed was a bad thing altogether, although I can wish that more of the all-male private schools had stayed that way. But the reality is that there was never the societal pressure on all-female schools to go co-ed that there was on all-male schools.

In the case then there should be nothing going the other way around.
Male schools being forced to go Co-Ed and Female schools going Co-Ed?
It cannot be just a one way street and in many cases it is do, die, or survive.
